Food Matters Live, an event focused on the food and nutrition ingredients industry, is scheduled to take place in London on 3 and 4 June 2026. The event will be held at Olympia’s newly redeveloped International Convention Centre (ICC), marking the beginning of a long-term partnership between the organisers and the venue.
Since its first edition in 2014, Food Matters Live has served as a platform for collaboration in sustainable food and nutrition. The 2026 event will utilise the facilities at Olympia’s convention and exhibition spaces to bring together ingredient suppliers, product development teams, and industry leaders from the UK and internationally.
“Food Matters Live has always been about connection and inspiration. As we look ahead to 2026, we’re thrilled to be partnering with Olympia – a venue that mirrors our ambition and gives us the room to grow,” said Briony Mansell-Lewis, managing director of Food Matters Live. “This new chapter allows us to better serve our vibrant community of food and nutrition innovators with an experience that’s accessible, forward-looking, and focused on the people driving change.”
Olympia’s redevelopment is part of a £1.3 billion regeneration project. The new International Convention Centre includes cultural, hospitality, and entertainment facilities. The organisers cited the venue’s scale and versatility as key factors in their decision to move Food Matters Live to Olympia, enabling the event to expand its format and combine content, ingredient innovation, and tasting features such as Tastes of Better.
Andy O’Sullivan, CEO of Olympia Events, added.“We’re excited to welcome Food Matters Live as one of the first events in our new International Convention Centre. This is a community that thrives on innovation, and we’re proud to support its future with a venue designed to inspire – and scale – with the industry’s ambitions.”
The 2026 edition of Food Matters Live will feature an expanded programme covering ingredient innovation, formulation trends, sustainability, and new technologies. It will continue to provide a platform for the product development community within the food and nutrition sectors to connect, learn, and establish partnerships.
